New on ClubCivic, Taffy ep3 owner

[whatsvtec]

I've had my ep3 for about 5 months now and can't complain at all, the car does everything I ask it to and is a great DD.

I have way too many dreams/plans for this dump, so hopefully I can get it paid off and put it in a garage where it belongs next winter. Full re-paint and built suspension/brakes are definitely first on the list of major mods.

Anyways, I hope to see good things in this community.





Mod list.... If you could call it that

Hybrid Racing Shifter Cable bushings
Aluminum shifter base bushings
Redline MTL
Amsoil 5-20 (plan on switching to 5-30 this spring)
K&N drop In filter

I've also got an M2 (ebay) shorty header and M2 testpipe waiting to go in this spring, as well as a bbp catback.


Wheels:
17x7 OZ Superturismo WRC
205/45 Bridgestone RE760sport tires

15x6 steelies with 185/65 Blizzak ws50's for the "rally" driving all winter long
BWAAAAAAAH

Way too many plans for this thing, first thing in order, is paying off the principle and buying an ef, eg or ek hatch for DD

Welcome to the site man.

Have to agree dont see anything wrong with the paint especially something that would make a whole respray of the car needed, I say save that paint money for other parts or mods.

That's because thankfully, white hides imperfections. But just about every exterior panel on the car has a chip or scuff or scratch that would need to be re-sprayed. Even my door jam has a chip in it

I did the headliner myself in some really thin red felt. I'll re-do it someday with red recaro or some black suede, I haven't decided yet. I just changed it because I couldn't stand the grey/beige that was stock. Same with the pillars/accesories. They're all painted now too. Pics in the spring!

How did a door jam get a chip in it? just curious and i think black suede would look real clean if done right.

My seat belt doesn't like to retract so sometimes when i take off my belt it falls onto the door jam, and we all know how "durable" honda paint is.

I think black suede would look nice. Do you have a mod list?

Welcome to Club Civic!

I absolutely love the car, not a hiccup out of it. How long have you had yours?
